Common at Ain, Mohabar, and Kokai in the Lebka 

 valley ; I also shot one specimen at Komayli. At 

 Kokai many of these Goatsuckers, together with Kates, 

 Eollers, and other insectivorous birds, were attracted by 

 a swarm of winged termites issuing from their nest.

A wing obtained near Antalo was given to me by 

 Lieut. St. John. 



Besides these Caprimulgi a bright rufous species was

 isahellinus, Temm.

 Dr. Finsch informs me that he had only seen the former.
